FUZHOU, June 20 (Xinhua) -- Nestled in the Daiyun Mountain like scattered pearls, over 2,000 fortified manors in Yongtai County trace their origins to the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD), flourishing later during the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) eras.
Today, increasing numbers of ancient manors and villages are being protected and revitalized. As historical heritage integrates with contemporary life and cultural landscapes merge with humanistic values, these age-old structures are radiating renewed vitality.
